A new rendering of the World Jewelry Center`s tower, which will house offices, luxury condominiums and grading labs, among other facilities.

Las Vegas–The World Jewelry Center (WJC) has released a new rendering of the 50-plus story tower that it is slated to build in Las Vegas as part of its plan to make the city a new international hub for the gem and jewelry industry, year-round.

The tower will contain more than 700,000 square feet of office condominiums and will be owned by several hundred companies from around the globe. The companies will have access to grading labs, an educational center, meeting facilities and exhibition space. There will also be banking facilities, an advanced security system, restaurants, an exclusive private club and fitness facilities.

The top floors of the tower will be reserved for about 90 ultra-luxury residential condominiums with a dedicated elevator system. Condominium owners will have a complete array of services available to them in a high-security living-working environment.

"We`re happy to share this artist`s rendering of the World Jewelry Center with everyone in the trade," WJC Managing Director Bill Boyajian said in a media release issued on Thursday. "With more than 100 companies having already reserved their space, the office tower is rapidly being filled with many of the industry`s leading companies in every sector of the trade. It will not only be one of the world`s most iconic buildings, but also one of the industry`s most important."
